Hi all,
About half year ago I decided to improve my programming efficiency, so I learned touch-typing and moved to Vim. All is fine and I feel myself much better than before. However there is a question that annoys me all that time: how should I touch-type IDENTIFIERS_WRITTEN_IN_CAPS
?
- If I will use shifts by all rules, I would have to switch hands very often. Trying to type
GOOGLE
in this case is a challenge. - If I will use just left shift holding it all the time, I would lose the physical memory of the left hand and wouldn't be able to find keys blindly.
- If I use caps lock, I have to remember to release it. Forgetting this in Vim will lead to apocalypses in command mode. Furthermore, many remap caps lock to something else like Esc or keyboard layout switching.
How do you touch-typists deal with SQL, Makefiles, Win API, DirectX and all that stuff that requires printing in caps?
